The Portugal Pavilion offers a wonderful experience for everyone. In 2013, the Pavilion has a new program featuring the Luso-Canadian artists Stephanie Tavares and Milu Pacheco. Again our kitchen is one of the highlights of the Pavilion. You can choose from a delicious selection of dishes, appetizers, and desert favorites, including octopus, shrimp, barbecued-chicken, Portuguese sausage, codfish patties, pastries, and more. These may be accompanied by one of the excellent Portuguese wines, beer (Sagres & Super Bock), or one of the popular fruit-based soft drinks.

Come join this great party! There is great food and drink, a wonderful cultural presentation on the Tastes of Portugal, lively and colourful folk dances, and the great voices of the talented artists Stephanie Tavares and Milu Pacheco.

A few pictures of the Pavilion and some of the joyful moments that were experienced on the opening day of the festival, August 4, 2013 follow.

The Portuguese Association of Manitoba was founded in 1966 by a group of Portuguese-Canadians that wished to celebrate their Portuguese heritage, language and culture, while facilitating the integration of Portuguese-Canadians into the fabric of their new home and nation.
